"Many people at the scene knew that you were the one who was confused, and you killed your son and daughter-in-law yourself. You are the murderer!"
The words of the mayor caused Sister Mei Duo to shock all over, looking at her grandfather in disbelief.
The old man Geller seemed to be much older in an instant. He trembled angrily and said to his granddaughter with a painful face:
"Mei Duo, Me Duo, don't listen to him nonsense! Back then..."
With the old man's narration, Lin Tian and Mei Duo learned of a tragedy buried in time.
Back then, the mother of Sister Mei Duo gave birth to two baby girls at once. The family was very happy and loved them even more. The family enjoyed themselves and lived an ordinary and happy life.
Until one day, the snow monsters and the wind and snow raged again, and the priests passed the instructions of the Tibetan gods and selected several women to sacrifice, including their mothers.
Although the families of all the selected women were sad, but out of faith or for the sake of their people, they could only agree with tears in the end, even the old man and old woman back then.
However, one person stood up at this time, resolutely opposed, and questioned the practices of the priests, saying that they might be deceiving everyone.
This man is the father of Sister Mei Duo. His words immediately aroused public outrage, and everyone condemned him, saying that he did not care for the safety of his people for his own personal affection, and that he dared to confront the messenger of the hidden god.
However, the father of Sister Mei Duo insisted on his own opinions, and he refused to let them take their wives away from him and send them to the so-called place where no one knows except the priests.
Seeing that persuasion and scolding could not change his mind, and the time for the sacrifice was getting closer and closer, in the end, the Tibetans together temporarily imprisoned him to prevent him from destroying the sacred ceremony.
But just the night before the sacrifice ceremony, he deceived the trust of the guards, knocked him unconscious, and escaped.
That night, he hurried home and knelt on the ground to beg his parents. The old man couldn't bear it, so he let him take his wife.
Their escape was quickly discovered. Under the leadership of the priests, everyone held torches and chased them in the snow. In the end, the two panicked and fell to the cliff, falling to pieces.
Afterwards, even though they died, the disaster at that time became more severe due to the absence of Mei Duo's mother and the sabotage rituals. Many people died, and the family stayed behind closed doors day and night.
Fortunately, the high priest communicated with the Tibetan god, interceded with him, and offered sacrifices with secret methods. At the same time, he paid a painful price before quelling the disaster, and since then, for more than ten years, the high priest never said anything. In a word, it is said that he lost his tongue for this.
After this incident, Mei Duo's mother's parents both committed suicide because they could not bear the pain of losing their daughter and being secretly condemned by everyone.
The old man and the old lady are actually not very popular in recent years. The old couple just pulled up the sisters who were only a few years old and ignorant at the time, and kept deceiving their parents that unfortunately they died at the hands of the snow monsters. Only now have they been told the truth.
"You have all heard that if it wasn't for your grandfather's softheartedness, for his own benefit, and let his son take your mother away with a fluke, then none of this tragedy would have happened!"
"Neither your father nor your grandparents will die, and you can avoid disasters at that time. You don't need to die those innocent tribesmen, and your mother, she can also sublimate the soul and serve the Tibetan God!"
"But all of this was ruined by your grandfather! And now, he still wants to ruin this ritual, and dares to insult the sacrifice. If the high priest did not make sacrifices for us, everyone would have to die in the snow. Guai He Fengxue's hands!"
"I ask you, are you also such selfish people, can you watch your people suffer, suffer, and be tortured!"
The mayor’s series of roars made everyone think about their faces. Many people looked more determined and even looked at the Mei Duo family with suspicion and hostility, while the Mei Duo sisters just covered their faces and cried.
"I'm sorry, I blame Grandpa for being bad, for hiding you for so many years, I hope you don't blame me."
The old man hugged Sister Mei Duo, also crying silently, but then he gritted his teeth again, turned around and roared:
"I tell you that for so many years, I have been living in regret and pain all the time. I have also doubted whether my actions were right or wrong. I have also questioned my son's statement."
"But now, I can tell you for sure that I just doubted the practice of these sacrifices! This kind of thing had never happened in our town back then, and the sacrifices worshipped were only to see a doctor and save people and lead everyone to worship."
"All of this has only happened in the past few decades. It was also during that disaster that all these sacrifices changed. They were completely different from before. They also proposed to sacrifice living people. Idea, after being handed in, they let them take it away. No one knows where it was taken. Have you ever doubted it!"
"Yes! I admit that the effect of the sacrifice is very good, but I don't believe in Tibetan gods so cruel. Only if we sacrifice the lives of our relatives will we bless his people!"
"I am the same as my son said back then. I can tell you clearly that if you want to take my granddaughter away from me, you have to step on my body first!"
The old man pointed at the priests and roared in a posture that he was ready to fight hard at any time, and the mayor became even more angry. Many of the crowd were also a little angry, and they stepped forward to accuse the old man of selfishness and blasphemy.
There were so many people, the old man opened his mouth, and he couldn't say so many people. In an instant, he was overwhelmed by accusations, while Sister Mei Duo just cried helplessly. Finally, the old man screamed and fainted.
The sisters were frightened and felt so helpless. They cried and said that they were willing to participate in the ceremony and told them to stop talking.
At this time, a sacrificial worshiper separated the crowd and walked over, pointing to the Mei Duo sisters, asking them to take them away with the other selected women, and the ceremony began the day after tomorrow.
As soon as the mayor waved his hand, the two big men went to catch them, but the cold light flashed, but a sword edge reached their chests, Lin Tian stepped up to the sisters and said coldly:
"Want to take them away? Yes, just kill me."
Everyone knows how Lin Tian is. Naturally, no one dared to step forward. However, his intervention by an outsider made many people feel angry and puzzled. Sister Mei Duo looked at him standing in front of her back, and her heart suddenly A strong warm current swept past, and the look in his eyes showed a strange brilliance.
